The Cold is Knocking Me Down Again!!!

Friday, January 20, 2012

Every year I try to get more serious about fitness in the first couple months of the year. Not for resolutions but to get ready for the summer and for the added bonus that everyone here hibernates in the winter so there is much less going on and I seem to have more time.

However IT'S COLD!!!! And I find it hard to get motivated when it's so super cold out. It's -26 C plus windchill out right now and that's warmer then it's been the last couple days.

However, the best way to warm up has to be to work out right? I just finished a workout and I feel warm and toasty! I need to change my thinking patterns. When I'm cold (which is always) I need to work out to warm up!


EDIT TO ADD: After writing this I jumped in the shower only to find out that all the hot water was gone so now I'm freezing again!!!

    I know what you mean! I try to do a workout video when I get home from work but it's soooo hard to peel off a toasty warm sweater and put on a sports bra when your internal temp feels like you should be able to see your breath. I find turning on all the lights I can helps me get motivated. At least if it LOOKS warm I can fool myself into getting started. Great post ;)
